The ancient packhorse bridge seen from the modern one
The Thorsgill Beck Bridges

The Thorsgill Beck, where it joins the river Tees, is crossed by two bridges. The first, a narrow packhorse bridge of round profile dates from the 17th century, and the adjacent modern one from the late 18th or early 19th Century.

The Beck marks the parish boundary, and parish boundary stones for Egglestone Abbey and Startforth are placed at the two ends of the more recent bridge.

Both are grade II listed buildings, see LinkExternal link and LinkExternal link
